Here are two points in the English Grammar Profile in the category of Verb patterns that depend on vocabulary range:
Point 29 is B1 and defined as:
a limited range of verbs followed by an ‘-ing’ form.
Point 56 is B2 and is defined as:
an increasing range of verbs followed by an ‘-ing’ form.
In addition, these are hard to differentiate from:
Point 22 in the category of NOUNS at A2 which is defined as:
‘-ing’ forms of verbs as nouns, in object position, to refer to activities.
For this reason, it is easier to just depend on the English Vocabulary Profile to help differentiate CEFR levels.
